“Christine took great care of my dog for 3 days. She is clearly experienced at looking after dogs, and I felt confident that my dog was in good hands. 100% recommend.”


2. Nelly M.

“Nelly has a convenient and cute apartment more than half dedicated to the furry friends she takes of and clearly adores. Every day for 8 days she sent me 1-2 photos/videos on walks, playing, resting, even giving flea/tick meds. She is lovely, quick to respond on text, very communicative about where she’ll be throughout the day, conscientious and responsible. Highly recommend.”

“Julia is a perfect dog Sitter. It has been the first time I used Rover and I was a bit worried as I left my dog for more than 2 weeks but the kindness and responsiveness of Jujia allowed me to relax and spend a wonderful vacation abroad . Many thanks Jujia!!! For sure she will be my dog Sitter for the next vacations!”


12. Mel O.

“Mel was incredible. We had a bad rover experience earlier in the evening and didn’t leave our dog with that person. Mel only accepts reservations a day in advance but we explained what happened and we were traveling from NJ to VA and Mel took our pup Kinealy in at 11:30pm at night and treated him amazing for two days. Kinealy is happy and back home with us. Thanks Mel and Family you helped us in need an allowed us to have a great trip!!”

16. Angela C.

“Angela is great! I’m typically a sitter and this was my first time booking a service with Rover. Our young guy is new to the family and we had to board him unexpectedly. Angela was very communicative about her availability, she took great care of Kai even with him still learning new commands and interactions with people and dogs, and send pictures and videos every day! I would completely book with her again when we may need. :)”

19. Asia M.

“Amazing sitter who kept in constant contact. Truffles was so happy when I got him, and I could tell that he had an excellent time! I've been with rover for many years and this person is definitely in the top sitter category for me!”


20. Cynthia H.

“This is our dog’s second stay with Cynthia. Our dog doesn’t like to be around aggressive dogs, so I was relieved and appreciated when Cynthia required a meet and greet to ensure our dog and hers, Crisco, who is also submissive got along well. This gave me peace of mind to know that other dogs staying with Cynthia during our dog’s stay would be friendly and not aggressive. Cynthia was very good about communicating during the stay both times, with photo updates. She was also very good about responding to texts or questions. When we dropped off our dog for her second stay, she wagged her tail happily and ran right inside, a very good sign. We will use Cynthia again when we need dog care!”
